Summary:

In this book, the concepts of innovation and dynamic capabilities are thoroughly studied and evolved into a new conceptualization for integration. Since the nature of business organizations is to strive for achievement of competitive advantage relentlessly, it is imperative for business organizations to develop suitable capabilities and, thus, leverage them to gain an advantageous edge in the business environment. The dynamic capabilities that are built and deployed by firms to cope with changing business conditions help the firms to adapt to the demand of the situation through resource mobilization and effective management. Dynamic capabilities usually appear in varied breadth and span and culminate into hierarchical stages. The current century business slogan "Innovation" is adapted and considered by every business firm. Development and maintenance of innovation is being perceived as a critical organizational function by managers. It is unanimously agreed upon by senior managers that there is a need for the building of organizational capabilities to promote innovation for a competitive advantage and to get the most benefit from such innovations in changing scenarios. This requires the integration of dynamic capabilities and innovation management disciplines for building innovation management capabilities in organizations.
